Michael Wayne Shaw

March 4, 1953 - February 11, 2019

Mr. Michael Wayne Shaw, 65, of Jefferson, South Carolina passed away on Monday, February 11, 2019 at his home. Michael was born on March 4, 1953 in Hartsville, South Carolina to the late Troy Shaw and Thelma Shaw. Michael had a very outgoing personality and never met a stranger. You rarely saw him where he did not have a big smile on his face. Michael worked hard in his life, where he recently retired from C.M. Tucker Lumber Company after many years. His love for hard work gave Michael the nickname workaholic by many people in his life. When he was not working Michael enjoyed watching the Carolina Panthers Football team, dancing, telling jokes or simply singing childhood songs. Out of all the things Michael loved to do, his biggest joy was spending time with his children to whom he was a very loving and supporting father. He will be truly and dearly missed by his loving children. Michael will be remembered as a Christian man who loved his Lord. This led him to be a faithful member of First Baptist Church of Pageland. In addition to his parents, Michael is preceded in death by his brothers, David and Roy Shaw. Those left to celebrate and remember his life include his loving children, Michael T. Shaw and Tyesha Shaw both of Lancaster, South Carolina, Tyrek Shaw of Jefferson, South Carolina and their mother, Darlene Brown of Lancaster, South Carolina; half daughter, Shundrae Pope of Lancaster, South Carolina; sister, Evelyn Shaw of Chester, South Carolina; cousin, Chucky Shaw of Pageland, South Carolina; also numerous nieces, nephews and many friends. A Celebration of Life Funeral Service will be held at 12:00 P.M. on Saturday, February 16, 2019 at First Baptist Church of Pageland with Pastor Joel Dale officiating. The family will receive friends prior to the service from 10:30 A.M. to 12:00 P.M. in the Fellowship Hall of First Baptist Church, 203 West Pigg Street, Pageland, South Carolina 29728.
